5. Food & Beverage
floorings unlimited
Food & Beverage plants pose one
of the harshest environments for
floors to survive the onslaught of
food acids, lactic acid, harsh
cleaning chemicals, oil, grease,
steam etc.
Cipy F&B Floorings are thermal
shock resistant, chemical
resistant, hygienic, food grade,
slip resistant and odourless.
Our floorings are designed to
minimise downtime and keep
production areas rolling on.
